Basic MIGO question...

[#1]

I am attempting to enter a Goods Reciept in MIGO as an "Order". NOT as a "Purchase Order" but as an "Order".

The difference being that when I enter a Goods Reciept as a "Purchase Order", then the transaction is listed as "WE" (Goods Reciept for Purchase Order).

I want the transaction listed as "WF" (Goods Reciept for Order).

How must I enter a purchase order in order to enter the goods reciept as simply an "Order" in MIGO in order to acheive the transaction as "WF"?

All help is much appreciated!

Hmmm . . . that doesn't sound right. There should be a little + symbol in the second column in MIGO overview screen. A 'subcontract' column with a 3 connected box icon above it.

Have you checked the BOM was correctly copied in to the PO ? (Drill through on components icon in the Material data item level tab).

It sounds in places like you are trying to process a GR against a Sub-contracting Purchase Order (?) You definitely say, created via ME21N in your third post.

If so . . . when you enter the GR, against Purchase Order, via MIGO there is a little + sysmbol that appears on the first item (for the finished product) click on this and you can see the consumption components. The quantities will automatically be poulated based on the ratios in the BOM, however, you can update them according to the actual consumption. Make sure you have the OK box ticked for all items and post. You will be able to see the GR and GIs against the same material document.

This is exactly what I am trying to do. However, in MIGO I'm hainvg trouble finding this + symbol. When I click on the finished product it just takes me to the material master for the product. There is a + symbol under the column "direction" but it doesn't do anything when I double click it.

It is also worth mentioning that even after I enter a goods reciept in MIGO as a "purchase order" (not production orders), it only appears that WE transactions occured and no WR movements show up. Double clicking WE transactions (within a BOM report) will take you to the purchase order while WR movements will allow you to see the components consumed (which is my ultimate goal here).

Hi

You cannot have WF for purchase order. These transactions are predefined. It cannot be changed.

What must be created (and in what transactions), in order to enter a Goods Receipt as a "WR" transaction (Goods Movement for Completion Confirm)?

I apologize, I initially meant "WR" and not "WF".

I can only seem to enter a Goods Reciept from a purchase order as a "Purchase Order", and because of that I am only creating "WE" movements when I would like to create a 'WR".

I am having difficulty entering a 101 movement "GR for order" (this is what I want to do). For some reason I can only create a 101 movement "GR Goods reciept" when entering a purchase order in MIGO.

Am I doing something wrong at the order creation stage? Or is this something basic that I'm forgetting to to do in MIGO?

I'm just trying to enter a purchase order into stock and view which materials have backflushed along with the order. A "WR" transaction will allow you to view that while a "WE" transaction will not allow you to do that.

Hi The below are transactions given by SAP we cannot define new or delete or change existing one.

DB Post difference (w/o number assignment)

IB Physical Inventory Document

ID Phys. Inv. Doc., Count and Difference

IN Phys. Inv. Recount Doc.

IZ Phys. Inv. Doc. and Count

RS Reservation

SI Inventory Sampling Procedure

WA GI, Trsfr Posting, Other Goods Movement

WE Goods Receipt for Purchase Order

WF Goods Receipt for Order

WH GI, Tfr Pstng, Other Goods Mvt for HU

WI Goods Movement for Inventory Difference

WL Goods Issue for Delivery

WO Goods Movement for Subcontracting

WQ Goods Movement for Usage Decision

WR Goods Movement for Completion Confirm.

WS Goods Mvt in Repetitive Manufacturing

WV Phys. Inv. Docs for Goods Movements

WW Subseq. Adj. for Active Ingredient Matl

WZ Batch Status Change/Revaluation

ZB Post count and difference(w/o no.assigt)

ZE Enter count result (w/o no. assignment)

ZL Change count result (w/o no. assignment)

What you can change is accounting document type for transaction. (But note transactions cannot be changed) that you can see in below config.

spro>MM>inventory management-->number assignment.

here you define accounting document type and assign to transaction. Accounting document number range is based on this.

I'm not sure I understand. All I want to do is enter a purchase order into stock as a "GR for order" (transaction - WR, 101 movement). For some reason, every time I try to enter my purchase orders as a Goods Reciept - Order, I get the message. "Order XXXX not found or not permitted for goods movement".

This is why I titled this question as "basic", I figure there is something simple behind this that I'm simply missing here. I created a purchase order in ME21N, now I'm trying to recieve it into MIGO and view which components backflushed along with the order. For some reason I can't seem to enter this purchase order as a WR transaction. WR, not WE, I apologize. The frame was cutting off the 'R' so it looked like an 'E' in SAP.

Whenever I enter a purchase order in MIGO as Goods Reciept - Purchase Order, I only seem to have 'WE' transactions to go along with this movement instead of a 'WR' movement. Why is that?

What exactly am I doing wrong? Or is there some base piece of information that I'm not understanding about entering a purchase order into stock using MIGO?

I would not call that basic what you want, especially because i do not even understand what you want.

if you have a purchase order, and you want do a goods receipt, for what reason do you want to do it in reference to an order instead to the purchase order? and what is this order?

Of course MIGO can be used to receive against order, e.g. work order, process order and production order.

Maybe we can give you hand if you could explain your scenario in more detail in stead of just focusing on WE, WF and WR

What I am trying to do is view the components that are backflushed along with a production order. So after creating a production order and entering it into stock (using MIGO), I should be able to view what material components were backflushed along with the finished good itself.

When running a report similar to MB51, I would like to view the components that were backflushed with the order. Typically, in this report I can simply click on the "TETy" (Transaction type) column and it will allow me to view all the components that went along with the order. However, only the transaction type "WR" allows me to do that, and for some reason whenever I enter an order into MIGO only transaction type "WE" is listed.

[JL23]

explain a bit more in detail what you do in MIGO.

during the entire thread you talked about purchase order, now you made clear that you are talking about production order, which makes some more sense in conjunction with the WR.

where do you actually see the transaction type WE in MIGO?

If you want do goods receipt for a production order, then start MIGO,

select A01 goods receipt in the first drop down on top left

select R08 order in the second drop down list.

now enter the order number
